THE CATTLE.


Now that spring is upon us with its
genial warmth, and the deep drifts of
snow upon the lowlands have saturated
the ground, assuring us ofa heavy growth
of grass, it is opportune for lis to make a
calculation of the loss of cattle. We
place the aggregate loss of horned cattle
from the various reliable reports at 33l
per cent. At least, not less. Nelson Story
of the Clarke's Fork range estimates his
loss at 10 per cent; while his foreman
(who was discharged by the way places
it at the modest sum of ten per cent
From other sources we can safely predict
that Mr.. Story's loss will be at least one,
half, while those more fortunately situat-
ed Oh the same range will lose only one
tenth, hence 33a per cent is save es.

the certainty of partial if not total loss of
capital that deters people from placing

of those enterprises known as specula>

another name for to gamble There
is, however, one means Of making even a
small capital accumulate and bear fruit,
with no chance of loss. Real estate is a
commodity which has always an intrinsic
value; power of producing something
which gives it a price. an impossibility
Of destruction by any misfortune or acct
dent which gives it stability. There
are two ways III which person
can invest in real estate a small
or large sum: The first by
losning to others a portion of its
value, giving to them the power of pos
sessing what otherwise they could not,
and taking in return portion of the
product of such property in the form of
interest. To those who are satisfied
with a reasonable income from this in
vestment, this offers the best and safest
way to solve the problem. The other
way is by buying lands with the expeeta>
ton of an increase in the value. This
will be affected more or less by circum>
stances, but the certainty Of gaining
something, and the possibility of an in>
crease far beyond any obtainable rate of
interest, would tempt anyone who would
season bis investment with the flavor of
speculation. Would YOU learn more of
